HRVY, Maisie Smith, Jamie Laing and JJ Chalmers revealed as latest ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ contestants

Four more celebrities have been announced for the upcoming series of ‘Strictly Come Dancing‘.

Singer HRVY, ‘EastEnders’ actor Maisie Smith, ‘Made in Chelsea’ star Jamie Laing and TV presenter JJ Chalmers have been added to the line-up. They join previously announced celebs Max George, Caroline Quentin, Jason Bell, Nicola Adams, Clara Amfo, Ranvir Singh and Bill Bailey.

On joining the series HRVY said, ā€œBeing onĀ StrictlyĀ is going to be such an amazing experience and Iā€™m so thankful to be taking part this year. I think my mum is more excited that sheā€™ll be able to see me every Saturday night now.ā€Ā 

Jamie Laing was part of the line-up for last year’s series but was forced to pull out due to injury. He was replaced by ‘Emmerdale’ star Kelvin Fletcher who went on to win the series with Oti Mabuse.

Commenting on taking part Jamie commented, ā€œHere we go again, hopefully this time I can last long enough so my mum can see me dance. The reason Iā€™m doing it, is to make my mum proud but all I did last year was make her even more disappointed. Letā€™s change that this year, canā€™t wait!!ā€

Strictly Come Dancing will return to BBC One this autumn with a shortened run due to the on-going pandemic.
